July 2003 CrashInjuryDeath

I was in a accident going between 30 to 32 MPH and hit a car with the front of the van. The other car was struck on the driver side of the car. Neither of the air bags in my venture van went off. The front bumper, headlight assembly, grill and hold were all damaged. The fire department and police department wanted to make sure that I make a complaint with you because they stated that both air bags should have went off. As far as I know there is no switch to turn either air bag off.
